Furniture
Just because a piece of furniture — from a bed frame to an end table — is inexpensive, that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily a great deal.
“If you’re redecorating, do your research before you snag the cheapest piece of furniture you can find,” says Cruze. While the price tag for furniture might be cheapest at Walmart, you should think about the quality and how long it will last.
“If it’s not going to hold up for at least a few years, you might wind up spending more money in the long-run.” Instead, Cruze advises to search for items through an online retailer. “Or you could consider saving a little while longer to purchase something that will last,” she says.
